The Fools are back tomorrow but I wanted to take the time to wish you all a very warm Happy New Year 2010!
2009 has been fun, ended with some rough personal issues but hopefully, 2010 will be a great year for all of us.
I would like to thank you for supporting me so far and I hope my new direction towards more storyline content (versus gag-a day type of comic) will please you
Resolutions? I’m not that good at making and keeping resolutions but what I can say is I’m here to stay this year. Making this comic is a hobby and as long as I’ll be having fun making it, the Fools will party all night long!
A few things that will happen this year:
- A total website revamp will occur this month
- Some new cool features other than the comic (such as beer and wine critics by Spike)
One thing that may happen this year:
- the 1st Drunken Fools book
- As we speak, Kurt Sasso, colleague at the Webcomic Planet Collective and host of the great podcast TGT Webcomics, is almost done with the writing of a kick-ass script about Stubby’s origins
- This story will be included in the book but not on the web (well, not this year for sure)
- Some elements of the current storyline will be directly linked to this story
- The book would also include the current storyline and some other stories already published but redrawn and re-written for the book. Some of you may say, don’t do that, keep your old stuff, etc.. don’t get me wrong, I will always cherish my old stuff but I just want to provide a book that will include a lot of exclusive content.
- The reason why I said “may happened this year” is that it will involve so many work from me. That will mean that I would have to produce at least 2 pages a week (the strip for the web, and 1 page for the book). One bad side of me is that I’m a lazy ass and can be easily demotivated and I also have a very demanding day job (both on time and mental energy). I will need all your help this year
Once again all, Happy New Year and see ya tomorrow!
Cheers
- Antoine
